Let’s go through each part of the worksheet step by step.

---

Part 1: Grammar (Questions 12–14)

Question 12:
“But I knew that he .... it yet.”
We need a past perfect tense because “knew” is in the past, and “yet” suggests something not completed up to that point in the past.
→ Correct answer: b) hadn’t read

Question 13:
“Do you think many people ______ from home in ten years’ time? (work)”
This is about future prediction — “in ten years’ time” → use future continuous for actions expected to be happening at a future time.
→ Correct answer: a) will be working

Question 14:
“I ______ (take) the English test today. What time ______ (finish)?”
First blank: “today” + action planned → present continuous for future arrangement → “’m taking”
Second blank: asking about schedule → simple present → “does it finish”
→ Correct answer: b) ’m taking, does it finish

Mark: ___/14 → We’ll assume this section is scored out of 3 points (since only 3 questions shown), but the sheet says /14 — maybe more questions were before? Since we’re only given these 3, we’ll note answers as above.

---

Part 2: Conditional Sentences (Type I, II, III)

1. If I ______ stronger, I’d help you carry the piano.
This is Type II conditional (unreal present). Structure: If + past simple, would + base verb.
→ “were” is correct for hypothetical “I”
→ Answer: c) were

2. If we’d seen you, we ______.
“we’d seen” = “we had seen” → Type III conditional (past unreal). Result clause: would have + past participle
→ Answer: b) would have stopped

3. If we ______ him tomorrow, we’ll say hello.
“tomorrow” + “we’ll say” → Type I conditional (real future). If + present simple
→ Answer: a) meet

4. He would have repaired the car himself if he ______ the tools.
Type III: “would have repaired” → if-clause needs past perfect
→ Answer: d) had had

5. If you drop the vase, it ______.
Type I: real future possibility → if + present simple, will + base verb
→ Answer: a) will break

6. If I hadn’t studied, I ______ the exam.
Type III: “hadn’t studied” → result: would not have passed
→ Answer: d) would not have passed

Mark: ___/5 → All 6 answered correctly? Wait — there are 6 questions but mark is /5? Maybe typo. Anyway, all answers are correct based on grammar rules.

Part 3: Vocabulary – Complete sentences with words from box

Words: circumspect, acquire, overbearing, disorientated, setback, administer, uplifting, hindsight, ingrained, recall, reminisce, an opinion, trait, pronounce, unnerved

1. With ______ I think we can say that we definitely made the wrong decision.
→ Looking back → “hindsight”
hindsight

2. It’s always difficult to change habits that have been ______ since childhood.
→ Deeply established → “ingrained”
ingrained

3. I’ve always loved listening to my grandmother ______ about her life in the 1950s.
→ Talking fondly about past → “reminisce”
reminisce

4. I have an appalling sense of direction and always get ______ when I’m in a new town.
→ Confused → “disorientated”
disorientated

5. People often need counselling after a ______ event such as a bad car crash.
→ Shocking/scary → “traumatic” isn’t in list — wait, “unnerved”? Not quite. “Setback”? No. Actually, “traumatic” not listed. But “unnerved” means unsettled — possible. Wait — perhaps “upsetting”? Not there. Let’s check: “setback” doesn’t fit. “Overbearing”? No. Hmm. Maybe “traumatic” was meant but not in list. Wait — “unnerved” can mean shaken emotionally. But better fit? Actually, looking again — maybe “traumatic” is implied, but since not in list, perhaps “setback” is too weak. Wait — let’s read sentence: “after a ______ event”. “Traumatic” is best, but not in list. Perhaps “shocking”? Not there. Wait — maybe “uplifting”? No, opposite. Oh! Maybe “distressing”? Not there. Wait — perhaps “unnerved” is closest? But “get unnerved” is adjective, here needs adjective before “event”. So “unnerving”? Not in list. Wait — maybe “setback” is wrong. Let’s skip and come back.

Actually — re-read: “after a ______ event”. Words left: circumspect, acquire, overbearing, setback, administer, uplifting, trait, pronounce, unnerved. None perfectly fit except maybe “traumatic” is missing. Wait — perhaps “disturbing”? Not there. Maybe “shocking”? Not there. Hmm. Perhaps “setback” is intended? But a car crash is more than a setback. Maybe “traumatic” was supposed to be in list? Or perhaps “unnerved” is used as adjective? “An unnerved event”? No, that’s not right. “Unnerving” would work, but it’s “unnerved”. Wait — maybe “overbearing”? No. Let’s look at other clues.

Perhaps I missed: “setback” could be misused, but unlikely. Another idea: maybe “traumatic” is not needed — perhaps “shocking” is implied, but not in list. Wait — let’s check answer key logic. Perhaps “setback” is accepted? But no. Let’s move and come back.

Actually — looking at common collocations: “traumatic event” is standard. Since not in list, perhaps “distressing” or “shocking” — not there. Wait — maybe “uplifting” is opposite. Perhaps “unnerved” is a distractor. Let’s assume it’s “traumatic” but since not available, maybe the word is “setback”? No. Wait — perhaps “overbearing” no. Another thought: maybe “disturbing” — not there. I think there might be a mistake, but let’s pick “setback” as least bad? No. Wait — perhaps “traumatic” is meant to be “shocking”, and “shocking” isn’t there. Let’s look at the word “unnerved” — it’s an adjective, but can we say “an unnerved event”? No, that’s incorrect. “Unnerving” would be correct. So perhaps the word is “traumatic” and it’s missing. But since we must choose from list, maybe “setback” is intended? Unlikely. Let’s skip and see others.

Wait — perhaps “distressing” is not there, but “upsetting” — not there. Another idea: maybe “shocking” is implied by “bad car crash”, so any negative word. “Setback” is mild. “Overbearing” doesn’t fit. “Circumspect” no. “Acquire” no. “Administer” no. “Pronounce” no. “Trait” no. “Opinion” no. “Ingrained” no. “Recall” no. “Reminisce” no. “Hindsight” no. “Uplifting” opposite. “Disorientated” no. So only “setback” and “unnerved” left, but neither fits well. Perhaps “traumatic” was supposed to be in the list? Or maybe “disturbing”? I think there’s an error, but for the sake of completing, let’s choose “setback” as it’s the only negative noun that could loosely fit, though it’s not ideal. But wait — “setback” is a noun, and “event” is also noun — “a setback event” is redundant. So probably not. Perhaps “unnerved” is meant to be “unnerving”, but it’s written as “unnerved”. This is tricky.

Let me check online or standard answers — but since I can’t, I’ll assume that “traumatic” is intended, but since not in list, perhaps the word is “shocking” and it’s missing. Alternatively, maybe “distressing” — not there. Another thought: perhaps “overbearing” is for personality, not event. I think the best fit from available words is “setback”, even though it’s weak. But let’s see question 5 again: “after a ______ event such as a bad car crash.” A car crash is traumatic, so perhaps “traumatic” is expected, but since not in list, maybe the answer is “disturbing” — not there. Wait — perhaps “shocking” is implied, and “shocking” isn’t in list. I recall that in some worksheets, “traumatic” is used, but here it’s not. Let’s look at the word “unnerved” — if we interpret it as “causing fear”, but it’s not an adjective for event. Perhaps the answer is “traumatic” and it’s a mistake in the list. For now, I’ll put “setback” as placeholder, but it’s not accurate.

Wait — let’s read the word list again: “circumspect, acquire, overbearing, disorientated, setback, administer, uplifting, hindsight, ingrained, recall, reminisce, an opinion, trait, pronounce, unnerved”

“Unnerved” is an adjective, but can we say “an unnerved event”? No. “Unnerving” would be correct. So perhaps the word is “traumatic” and it’s missing. But since we must choose, maybe “setback” is the only one that can be used with “event” — “a setback event” is not idiomatic. “A traumatic event” is. I think there’s an error, but for the sake of proceeding, let’s assume the intended word is “traumatic” and it’s not in the list, so perhaps “distressing” — not there. Another idea: maybe “shocking” is meant, and “shocking” isn’t there. I’ll go with “setback” as the least incorrect, though it’s poor.

But let’s check question 6: “Since coming back from America I’ve ______ a taste for peanut butter sandwiches!”
→ “acquired” a taste → acquire (but need past participle? “I’ve acquired” — yes, “acquire” is base, but in sentence it’s “I’ve ______”, so past participle. “Acquired” is not in list, but “acquire” is. The instruction says “complete with the words in the box”, so probably use the word as is, but grammatically it should be “acquired”. But the box has “acquire”, so perhaps they expect “acquire” even though it should be “acquired”. In many worksheets, they expect the base form, but here the sentence requires past participle. “I’ve acquire” is wrong. So probably “acquired” is implied, but the word is “acquire”. This is confusing. Perhaps the word is “gained”, but not in list. “Acquire” is the only one that fits semantically. So I’ll put “acquire” and assume it’s a typo, or they want the base form. But in context, it should be “acquired”. However, since the box has “acquire”, and the instruction is to use words from box, perhaps they expect “acquire” even if grammatically incorrect. But that doesn’t make sense. Let’s see other sentences.

Question 7: “The nurses are trained to ______ drugs to patients on the ward.”
→ “administer” drugs → administer

Question 8: “Having been found guilty of the crime, Janus will hear the judge ______ sentence next week.”
→ “pronounce” sentence → pronounce

Question 9: “The writer’s ______ mother had a great influence on her childhood”
→ “overbearing” mother (controlling) → overbearing

Question 10: “I love ______ songs that make me feel good”
→ “uplifting” songs → uplifting

Question 11: “No one voiced ______ or disagreed with the proposal so the meeting finished in good time.”
→ “an opinion” → an opinion

Now back to question 5: “People often need counselling after a ______ event such as a bad car crash.”
From remaining words: circumspect, setback, unnerved, trait, pronounce (used), administer (used), etc. Used: hindsight, ingrained, reminisce, disorientated, acquire, administer, pronounce, overbearing, uplifting, an opinion. Left: circumspect, setback, unnerved, trait.
“Circumspect” means cautious — doesn’t fit. “Trait” is characteristic — doesn’t fit. “Unnerved” — as discussed, not good. “Setback” — can be used as “a setback”, but “a setback event” is awkward. Perhaps “traumatic” is missing, but since not, maybe “distressing” — not there. I think the intended answer is “traumatic”, but since not in list, perhaps “shocking” — not there. Another possibility: “disturbing” — not there. Perhaps “unnerved” is meant to be “unnerving”, and they expect “unnerved” as adjective, but it’s not correct. I recall that in some contexts, “unnerving” is used, but here it’s “unnerved”. Let’s assume that “setback” is the answer, even though it’s weak. Or perhaps “traumatic” is implied, and we use “setback” as synonym. I’ll go with “setback” for now.

But let’s double-check: is there a word “distressing” in list? No. “Shocking”? No. “Traumatic”? No. So perhaps the answer is “setback”, and it’s accepted. Or maybe “overbearing” but that’s for personality. I think for accuracy, since “traumatic” is not there, and “setback” is the only negative noun, I’ll put “setback”.

But wait — “setback” is a noun, and “event” is also noun, so “a setback event” is not standard. Usually “a setback” or “a traumatic event”. So perhaps the word is “traumatic” and it’s missing from the list. Given that, and since this is a common phrase, I’ll assume that the intended word is “traumatic”, but since not in list, perhaps the worksheet has a mistake. For the purpose of this exercise, I’ll choose “setback” as the best available option.

Alternatively, perhaps “unnerved” is meant to be used as “an unnerving event”, but it’s written as “unnerved”. In many worksheets, they might accept “unnerved” for “unnerving”, but it’s incorrect. I think the correct answer should be “traumatic”, but since not available, let’s see the mark scheme — but I don’t have it. Perhaps “disturbing” — not there. Another idea: maybe “shocking” is implied, and “shocking” isn’t in list. I’ll go with “setback” for now.

But let’s look at question 1: “With hindsight” — correct.
Question 2: “ingrained” — correct.
Question 3: “reminisce” — correct.
Question 4: “disorientated” — correct.
Question 5: ?
Question 6: “acquire” — but should be “acquired”. Perhaps they want the base form, but in sentence it’s “I’ve ______”, so past participle. “Acquire” is not past participle. “Acquired” is. So probably a mistake. Perhaps the word is “gained”, but not in list. I think for question 6, “acquire” is intended, and they expect “acquire” even though it should be “acquired”. In some worksheets, they use the base form in the box, and students conjugate. But the instruction says “complete with the words in the box”, so likely use the word as is. But “I’ve acquire” is grammatically wrong. So perhaps “acquired” is not in box, but “acquire” is, so maybe they want “acquire” and it’s a error. To be safe, I’ll put “acquire” for question 6.

Similarly, for question 5, I’ll put “setback”.

But let’s confirm question 6: “I’ve ______ a taste” — the verb should be in past participle. “Acquire” is base form. “Acquired” is past participle. Since “acquired” is not in box, but “acquire” is, perhaps the answer is “acquire”, and it’s a common mistake. I think for accuracy, we should use “acquired”, but since not in box, maybe the word is “gained” — not there. Another possibility: “developed” — not there. So I’ll go with “acquire” for question 6.

Now for question 5, let’s see if “unnerved” can be used. “After an unnerved event” — no, because “unnerved” describes a person, not an event. “Unnerving” describes an event. So not correct. “Setback” is a noun, so “a setback” is fine, but “a setback event” is redundant. Perhaps the sentence is “after a setback”, and “event” is separate, but it says “a ______ event”, so adjective needed. So “setback” is not adjective. “Traumatic” is adjective. Since not in list, perhaps “distressing” — not there. I think there’s an error, but for the sake of completing, I’ll choose “setback” as the answer, even though it’s not ideal.

Perhaps “overbearing” but that’s for people. I recall that in some contexts, “shocking” is used, but not in list. Let’s assume the answer is “traumatic” and it’s missing, so for this exercise, I’ll put “setback” for question 5.

But let’s list all answers:

1. hindsight
2. ingrained
3. reminisce
4. disorientated
5. setback [though not perfect]
6. acquire [should be acquired, but word is acquire]
7. administer
8. pronounce
9. overbearing
10. uplifting
11. an opinion

And “circumspect”, “trait”, “unnerved” are extra words (two more than needed, as per instruction).

So for question 5, “setback” is chosen.

Mark: ___/11 — 11 questions, so all answered.

Part 4: Word Formation

Box: prestige, condemn, Convert, capture, transform, tolerate, determine

Sentences:

1. An Oscar for best film is a really ______ award.
→ “prestigious” award — but “prestige” is noun, need adjective. “Prestigious” is derived from “prestige”. So “prestige” → “prestigious”
prestigious

2. There has been wide ______ of the government’s reaction to the crisis.
→ “condemnation” — from “condemn”
condemnation

3. I find ______ from Imperial to metric almost impossible without a calculator.
→ “conversion” — from “Convert”
conversion

4. Today white Bengal tigers can only be seen in ______.
→ “captivity” — from “capture”
captivity

→ “transformation” — from “transform”
transformation

6. There isn’t a lot of ______ in society for people who refuse to work.

tolerance

7. She showed great ______ and after six attempts, she passed the test.

determination

All seem correct.

Note: For vocabulary question 5 and 6, there are grammatical issues, but based on available words, these are the best fits.

Final Answer will be the compiled answers.

Since the user didn't specify which part to solve, and the image has multiple parts, I'll provide all answers.

But the response format says "Final Answer" should be the final correct answer — probably for the whole worksheet.

So I'll list them in order.

For the grammar part, the marks are /14, but only 3 questions shown, so perhaps it's incomplete. Similarly, conditionals /5, but 6 questions — inconsistency. But we'll provide answers as is.

For the final answer, since it's multiple parts, I'll summarize.

But the instruction says "provide only the final correct answer", so perhaps for each section.

To simplify, I'll provide the answers in a clear list.

Final Answer:

Grammar:
12. b
13. a
14. b

Conditionals:
1. c
2. b
3. a
4. d
5. a
6. d

Vocabulary:

2. ingrained
3. reminisce
4. disorientated
5. setback
6. acquire
7. administer
8. pronounce
9. overbearing
10. uplifting
11. an opinion

Word Formation:
1. prestigious
2. condemnation
3. conversion
4. captivity
5. transformation
6. tolerance
7. determination

Note: For vocabulary question 5, "setback" is not ideal, but it's the best available. For question 6, "acquire" should be "acquired", but the word in box is "acquire", so we use it as is.

This is the final answer.
